Vacancy Poll: What Would You Like to See?
Newly re-designed La Bottega leaves a gap in Merrick strip mall.

Recently, it was announced that La Bottega would re-open with a smaller location.
According to the owner, Eric Chosed of the TAC Corporation, which owns the strip mall space, the new layout of the eatery left another vacancy that will need to be filled.
"It is taking half of the space that it used to have, which will result in one small vacancy that we are hoping will rent quickly," Chosed said.
